Add the remaining water and oil and leave the mixture to stand for 15-20 minutes.

Heat a little oil in a frying pan until it is nice and hot.

Stir the batter then put a large spoon of batter into the pan, smoothing it out to form a circle 15cm/6” in diameter.

Cook over a medium heat for 2–3 minutes as the surface starts to change colour and the edges start to lift.

When the base is golden turn the flatbread over and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes.

Remove the cooked flatbread to a plate and cover with foil to stop it drying out.

Best eaten on the day of making.

These remind me a little bit of the authentic corn tortillas my Guatemalan friend makes. The texture is not like the pre-packed wheat tortilla wraps you would buy in the supermarket, it’s softer and more doughy and they come out a bit thicker. They don’t hold up quite so well under liquidy fillings. They are quick, easy and super cheap to make and so long as you know what to expect, they’re perfectly enjoyable. I might suggest adding a little more liquid so that the mixture spreads thinner in the pan but haven’t tried it myself.

So these basically look like pancakes?

Hi, Karlene - these do resemble pancakes with their round appearance; however, we can assure you that these are delicious quick flatbread tortilla wraps. We have since amended the cooking time within the method. Best wishes, Doves Farm.

Sorry but this recipe really wasn't great. The finished product came out like a slimy pancake texture
